Heavy-duty generators for serious operations.
Industrial diesel generator sets from 12 kVA to 2200 kVA — for construction, mining, manufacturing, agriculture, data centres and commercial operations across New Zealand and the Pacific.
When the operation depends on the generator, you need a unit that’s built for the job — not a domestic genset running beyond its limits. Shaw Diesels supplies industrial generator sets from DEUTZ Power Solutions, Isuzu Power Solutions and Lister Petter in open-frame and canopied configurations, with outputs ranging from 12 kVA through to 2200 kVA.
We handle everything from initial power assessment and specification through to supply, delivery, installation, commissioning and ongoing maintenance. Our diesel engineers are experienced with large-scale generator installations and can design systems for complex applications including multiple genset synchronisation, load management and fuel systems.
Industrial power for New Zealand’s toughest industries.
When your operation can’t afford to lose power, you need a generator that’s engineered for the environment it works in.
- Construction & civil works — prime power for large sites, tower cranes, batch plants and site infrastructure
- Mining & quarrying — continuous generation for extraction, processing and remote mine sites
- Manufacturing & processing — backup and prime power for production lines, cold storage and industrial plant
- Agriculture & primary industry — large-scale dairy operations, packhouses, irrigation and processing facilities
- Commercial & retail — shopping centres, office buildings, hotels and hospitality operations
- Pacific Island infrastructure — power stations, resorts, government buildings and community infrastructure
- Utilities & water treatment — pumping stations, treatment plants and essential services
Open-frame and canopied configurations.
Industrial generators are available in two main configurations, depending on where and how they’ll be used:
- Open-frame (skid-mounted) for generator rooms, plant rooms and indoor installations where the generator is housed in a dedicated space. Easier to service and maintain, lower cost, and typically used in permanent installations with existing weather protection.
- Canopied (weather-protected) for outdoor installation where the generator is exposed to the elements. Sound-attenuated enclosures reduce noise output and protect the engine, alternator and control systems from weather, dust and debris.
The right generator configuration for your site.

Prime & continuous power operation.
Industrial generators serve two main roles: prime power and continuous power.
- Prime power is the primary source of electricity where no mains connection exists. The load varies throughout the day as equipment switches on and off, so the generator handles fluctuating demand.
- Continuous power runs 24/7 as the sole supply for sites with a steady, consistent draw.
Continuous power requires the right setup.
The right specification helps maximise reliability.
For operations that need the generator running around the clock, Shaw Diesels will specify a unit rated for continuous duty and set up a maintenance programme to match the running hours.
